The Last Waltz?

In what may be the final decent golfing day of the season, (55 and sunny - some wind, note the snap in the flag) two senior golfers finished No. 18 at Creeks Bend in New Prague around noon today. Forecasts say it may snow tonight and it will get chillier no matter what, so linksters gratefully took their swings, realizing they may now have to head south to continue their avocation. The photographer took this picture before finishing out his day with a nifty par, a good omen, he felt, as he loaded the bags into the car with a mixture of gratitude and sadness.
Golf course operators, who had a slow start this spring, appreciate the extra rounds and revenue that late fall has produced.
